LDS Church donates $1 million to defeat Idaho abortion ballot measure

Original: LDS Church cuts $1M check to help defeat Idaho’s Prop 1 expanding abortion access

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has donated $1 million to the campaign opposing Idaho's Proposition 1, a ballot measure that would expand abortion access in the state. The contribution makes the church a major funder of the effort to defeat the initiative, drawing attention to the role religious institutions play in Idaho's abortion politics ahead of the vote.

Why now: A major religious institution is directly funding opposition to a high-stakes abortion ballot measure, sparking debate over religion in politics.
